The narrative tradition in ancient Chinese historical documents has a long history, from the early Shangshu to Sima Qian's Records of the Historians. This article will examine the development of the Chinese narrative tradition and focus on the transformation of the narrator's identity and the role it plays in historical narrative.
The roots of the Chinese narrative tradition can be traced back to the ancient document Shangshu, which is the embryonic stage of ancient historical narrative. After gradual development and evolution, works such as "Zuo Chuan" and "Chinese" made the narrative factor more complete, but the emergence of "Shiji" marked the peak of historical narrative. With his superb narrative skills, Sima Qian's narrative artistic achievements in the Records of the Historian reached an unprecedented height, surpassing the works of his predecessors and becoming a model for other historical works in later generations.
In the process of the evolution of narrative identity, the narrator of "Shangshu" mainly records history objectively, and faithfully portrays characters, events and plots. In contrast, Sima Qian, the narrator of the Records of the Historians, shows a richer and deeper sense of personal consciousness, integrating his own subjective judgment into the narration of historical events. He not only made full use of the duties of the "Taishi Ling" to collect and sort out a large number of historical materials, but also fully presented his personal sense of independence, so that the identity of the potential narrator of the historian surfaced.
The change in the identity of the narrator is also reflected in the narrative mode: from the simple and objective narration of the Book of Shang to the integration of personal consciousness and subjective judgment into the narrative of the story in the Records of the Historian, this change is not only reflected in the way the historical materials are organized, but also in the aesthetic orientation of historical materials and the perspective of judging historical events.
In the "Historical Records", "Taishi Gongri" is the most powerful proof of the emergence of Sima Qian's narrative identity. He is not only a behind-the-scenes recorder, but also stands on the stage**, expressing his attitude and views on historical events through non-narrative commentary. This kind of intervention does not forcibly distort the reader's point of view, but presents historical events in a straightforward way, in an objective and fair manner, so that the reader can think and judge more clearly and clearly.
To sum up, the evolution process from "Shangshu" to "Records of the Historians" not only reflects the improvement of narrative skills, but also highlights the change of the narrator's identity from a microphone to a "Taishi Gongri". This change is not only the processing and presentation of historical materials, but also the improvement of the ability to discuss facts in historical narratives, which provides sufficient inheritance and inspiration for future narrators.
This article attempts to analyze the development of narrative traditions, spy on the evolution of the narrator's identity, and show the outstanding contributions and unremitting pursuit of ancient Chinese historians in historical narrative by analyzing the development of narrative traditions, and the skills and wisdom in historical narrative.
This article delves into the evolution of ancient Chinese narrative traditions, especially the transformation of the identity of the narrator from the Book of Shang to Sima Qian's Records of the Historians, showing the skills and wisdom in historical narrative. The author skillfully connects ancient texts to present the context of the Chinese narrative tradition, as well as the changes in the narrator's narrative style and attitude.
First of all, through the comparison of Shangshu and Shiji, the article clearly shows the evolution of the narrator's identity. In the Book of Shang, the narrator plays the role of an objective recorder, truthfully narrating and portraying historical events. In The Records of the Historians, Sima Qian integrates personal consciousness and subjective judgment into the narrative, presenting a more profound and rich historical story, highlighting the transformation of the historian's identity.
Second, the article has a clear description of the changes in narrative techniques. From the conciseness and objectivity of the Shangshu to the penetration of personal consciousness in the Records of the Historians, the narrator's attitude and judgment gradually emerge, and this change provides readers with more space for thinking, making historical events more vivid and rich in the author's statement.
The discussion of the "Taishi Gongri" in the "Historical Records" in the article is also very exciting. This kind of non-narrative commentary not only shows Sima Qian's personal attitude and views on historical events, but more importantly, presents it in an objective and fair way, giving readers clear and definite ideas and judgments, so that readers can better understand the author's point of view.
In general, this review provides an in-depth analysis of the ancient Chinese narrative tradition, from the change of the narrator's identity to the evolution of narrative techniques, and progressively shows the outstanding contributions made by ancient Chinese historians in historical narrative. However, some specific examples or more textual analysis citations may further enrich and support the argument of the article, so as to increase the depth and credibility of the article.
